The reborn Duke's wife

Chapter 43 Gossip
Immediately Qingxuan lowered her head and stood aside respectfully, not daring to say more.If the big kitchen really took advantage of the fact that the princess was not in the mansion, and borrowed the staff from Qinxinyuan at will, wouldn't that be a naked challenge to the princess?
As the master of the Qinxin Garden, the princess is not only the eldest lady of the Houfu, but also the person who was rejected by the emperor and recorded the name of the princess on the royal spy. This is well known.They came here to borrow people so blatantly, clearly with the intention of humiliating the princess.

Qingxuan was thinking this way in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.She didn't stay by Liu Ruxin's side for long, and she only got a glimpse of the privacy of the mansion gate. At the same time, she was secretly happy that she could vaguely guess the thoughts of those people; Naturally, one must be clear about these things, otherwise, she is not worthy of serving by Liu Ruxin's side.But I also know that those are the princess's family affairs, not something a servant can talk about, the words just now are already presumptuous.

Liu Ruxin said she got it, and let Qingxuan help her wash and change her clothes.After everything was ready, my stomach started to growl, but the maid who prepared the meal hadn't come back yet.

"The princess will be there later, and the maidservant will go and urge her to go." Qingxuan said.

"There's no need to rush, Benjun will go to the big kitchen with you to have a look." Liu Ruxin said expressionlessly.

Liu Ruxin's two small courtyards used to have a separate small kitchen, but she just came back from Zhuangzi, and there was probably no one in the entire Dingbohou's mansion except the old Dingbohou and the people from Qinxinyuan. Know that she has returned home.Therefore, there is no time to purchase and store in the small kitchen.

A group of people surrounded Liu Ruxin, turned around the long corridor, walked through the corridor, and walked to the big kitchen after about half a stick of incense.At this time, it was almost noon, and today it was the [-]th sixtieth birthday of Mrs. Hou's wife, and the people in the big kitchen were sweating profusely and full of enthusiasm.

As soon as I entered, a gust of hot air hit, mixed with the aroma of various ingredients.

Liu Ruxin glanced around coldly, but found no one belonging to Nanny Lu among the swaying figures.But I saw Hongxiu standing there upright and arguing with a person dressed like a lady in charge.Surrounded by a few good-for-nothing women, occasional bursts of laughter made Hongxiu's puffy little face even more blushing.

Liu Ruxin walked over, just in time to hear one of the wives laughing at the others: "These days, people who swindle food and drink come to Dingbohou's mansion. I don't even open my eyes to see what it is." Land, is it that cats and dogs can break into it? Not to mention anything else, just because you cheat in the name of our Miss Houfu, it is enough for you to drink a pot!"

"That's right, everyone in the entire capital doesn't know that the eldest lady has gone to the Zhuangzi to recuperate from her illness, and the little girl came here to cheat for food and drink, so she won't come back until she finds out."

"That's right, our old lady has always been concerned about Missy's body. After a long time, it will inevitably accumulate in her chest, causing the old disease to recur. Missy has been raising a general in Zhuangzi, and she didn't even come back to take care of her illness. Now you say that the eldest lady is back, isn't that a joke?"

"Not to mention, everyone in the house knows about this matter, but I didn't expect to meet a stupid person and bump into it by myself!"

The people who came with Liu Ruxin over there were all furious when they heard this.Especially Qingxuan, who was about to go up and tear the woman's mouth, but was stopped by Liu Ruxin with a gesture.She said unhurriedly: "Oh? So, when should the county return home, you still need to get your consent?"

It was as if the gossip of those women had nothing to do with her.There is no wave in the ancient well in a pair of blue eyes, there is no wave!

It was only then that everyone realized that there was a young girl in brocade clothes standing behind them, about thirteen or fourteen years old, looking at them with a smile.Only those unique eyes showed the identity of the visitor. Suddenly, the servants who were still chattering around just now fell silent!At the same time, I was beating the side drum in my heart, guessing how much their conversation was heard by Liu Ruxin, thinking of the almost doting of old Ding Bohou on Liu Ruxin, if she clamored regardless, the matter would be heard stabbed out, then...

Thinking of this, the servants couldn't help but turn pale, and couldn't help shrinking their necks.Accompanying Xiaoxin with a disconcerted expression, his eyes became more and more fearful when he looked at Liu Ruxin!
The lady in charge belonged to Chen Dongsheng's family, she was once the dowry of the third bedroom, Webster, and now she was sent to manage a series of things in the kitchen.She looked at Liu Ruxin's lukewarm expression, her expression was indifferent, she couldn't see any emotion, she didn't know how to deal with it!However, after all, she has been with the third wife Webster for many years, and her adaptability is also top-notch. When she first saw Liu Ruxin, her mind became active. He bowed to Liu Ruxin with a smile on his face, and said: "I don't know that the eldest lady is coming home, and there is no notice on the door, so I am so negligent. Please let the eldest lady see that the old slave is ignorant." Please forgive me this time."

look!How well said!Those who talked about the master behind this were not only innocent, but also blamed the master for not notifying him when he returned home.Moreover, he blatantly made some small moves under her nose. Do you really think she is a fool?Or is it that she has such a good temper on weekdays that these people have forgotten their duty as slaves?
Liu Ruxin sneered in her heart!But the smile on her face became brighter and brighter, her red lips parted slightly, but what she said made the gossiping women who had just gossip behind their backs immediately change their colors, and they were suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

"Forgive me for my ignorance, but I don't know when the new rule of Ding Bo Hou's Mansion: the master has to get the consent of the lady in charge of the kitchen before returning home! It seems that I have to ask my third aunt for advice. The waiting mansion is busy with general affairs. Could it be that she can't do it alone, and she plans to ask a lowly slave to help manage this huge waiting mansion? The master passed on a meal, but was called a rascal who cheated on food and drink by some lowly slaves. Don't pass it on. Laugh off other people's big teeth! If the third aunt is really too busy, I don't mind mentioning it to my grandfather and ask the second aunt to come back to help her. Or is it that the third aunt bullied me as an orphan girl with no one to support her and planned to kill me? Evicted from the waiting mansion, has the mansion been opened?" The latter words are a bit serious!
